For example:
I'd love to but I'm busy, I'm visiting my sister this weekend.

Today's word is scan. This is a verb that means to quickly read or look at something, usually to find a specific piece of information. Maybe you're scanning a form to find the date that it was written or scanning a page from a book to find out where the story takes place.

Tim arrives at the restaurant, and it turns out that Paul wasn't invited to his sister's wedding because he doesn't really know her anyway. Tim must have behaved embarrassingly at the wedding. But Anna is apparently no longer angry. Paul talks about his online date Laura. Anna and Meili propose a housewarming party and Paul should invite her. Can Paul convince Laura of himself?

16: Eine Party! Super Idee! | A party! Great idea!

Los idiomas están vivos, y son capaces de adaptarse a las diferentes épocas. Eso hace que muchas palabras se dejen de usar, cambien su significado para hacer referencia a algo más específico y/o relevante, y otras veces da lugar a que se creen nuevas palabras debido a la necesidad de nombrar conceptos o cosas nuevas. 

En este episodio hablo de palabras que, según un artículo que la mayoría de los jóvenes no entendería, ya que son de uso cada vez menos común, a pesar de que yo conozca, e incluso use, muchas de ellas. ¿Quieres saber de que palabras te hablo?

Después de escuchar el episodio no te olvides de pasarte por mi Instagram y decirme que te ha parecido, y…. si tú habías escuchado alguna de las palabras que menciono.

Puedes leer el artículo completo en el periódico “El País”: https://elpais.com/cultura/2023-08-13/pololo-yeye-anda-y-que-te-ondulen-aquellas-palabras-que-decian-tus-abuelos-y-no-entiendes.html
